U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker today issued a statement on Veterans
Day.

“Today
is an important opportunity to honor America’s veterans, both those we have
lost and those currently serving our nation at home and abroad. I am proud of
the thousands of veterans who continue to take up the call of public service as
part of our team at the Commerce Department, and throughout the federal
government. As we recognize the service and sacrifices of the brave men and
women of our armed forces, the administration remains committed to helping
veterans find good jobs and ensuring they have every opportunity to pursue the
American dream.”
